Welcome to the first in a series of Sunday episodes titled "Take Me to Church", where spirituality is not confined to walls or traditions but thrives in open exploration. This week, we delve into the Genesis 1 and the creation story, not as a singular doctrine but as one of many ancient narratives that may describe the same fundamental truth.

Through deep discussions on the Dead Sea Scrolls, The Book of Enoch, and ancient Egyptian beliefs about Thoth, we examine how different traditions intersect, rather than compete, in their search for meaning. The episode also explores the symbolism of the firmament—could it be figurative, subtly aligning with a modern understanding of the cosmos? We reflect on the Sabbath not just as a religious command but as a universal call to rest and renewal.

More than anything, this episode is an invitation—to question, to rethink, and to uncover the hidden connections that shape our understanding of ourselves and the world. Join me as we journey through ancient texts with curiosity and critical thought, seeking wisdom beyond boundaries.

Lots of Love <3
